Gary, Indiana Harbor, East Chicago and Other Steel Manufacturing Points Expect to Face a Long Shortage. With the steel mills of Gary, Indiana Harbor and Ebst Chicago paralyxed as the result of the Friday-Saturday blizzard and previously suffering- from a series of misfortunes it is feared, that production will be curtailed, for weeks to come with unfortunate results to 'lie munition business. A series of storms, material shor. ae, transportation tie up and inabiUt; to gtt fuel had its climax capped Saturday when the latest blizzard haul spent its fury. Q-ary Totally Tied. W. The cement, bridsre, sheet steel, tin plate, drawn steel, bolt and screw, blast furnaces, rolling mills,, coke oven and (runcotton works of Gary are down entirely. Hut two blast furnaces are g-o-inK, thee to (renerat waste 8s to produce electricity. Steel workers are busy shoveling snow, thawing pipes and trying to open lines of communication.

The o!d-time mixture of Sage Ta and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked 3iid faded hair is grandmother's recipe, and folks are &g.1n using it to keep their hair a good, even color. vhioVi is quite sensible, as wc lire living in nn age when a youthful appearance is of the greatest advantage. Nowadays, though, ve don't have the troublesome task o!" dithering tht sage and the mussv mixing a; home. All drug stores sell the ready-to-usa product, improved by the addition of other ingredients, i-allod "YVyeth'.s S.ign and Sulphur Compound." It ts verv popular because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft hrth vi'.h it and on.w this through your hsir, taking one str.it! i strand at a time; by moraing the grayhair disappears, but what delights the ladies w ith Yj elh's Sage and Su'phur Compound, is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applications, it also produces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive. This ready-to-use preparation is a delightful toilet requisite for thoe who desire amore youthful appearance. It it noil intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease.
